Black women are more likely to die from breast cancer—not because we’re weaker, but because the system wasn’t built with us in mind. We deserve better—better care, better research, better outcomes.

None of that happens if we stay silent. This is how change starts. Take just 5 minutes to share your experience and shape what comes next for women in our community.

Mayor-elect has assembled an all-star team of city leaders to assist her in prioritizing responsibilities once she becomes at the top of the new year. In total, 18 policy committees will support the Rise Higher Detroit transition initiative, which will meet regularly each week through the end of this year as they outline the community's top priorities.

“These appointments represent a significant step forward in assembling an administration that reflects Detroit’s diverse voices and is ready to deliver bold, community-driven results from day one,” the group said in a release.

At the podium, Sheffield called the process the boldest, most rigorous and inclusive transition plan in the city’s history.

“These co-chairs reflect the best of Detroit — people who lead with heart, vision and a deep belief in what’s possible for our city. Their work will shape our transition priorities, inform our policies and ensure that every decision we make as a city is rooted in partnership and the collective voice of our people.”
